Happy Mexican Pizza Day!

Taco Bell's beloved Mexican Pizza makes its return this week and some of the biggest fans are indulging early. Over the weekend, we told you that the Mexican Pizza would be returning this Thursday (5/19) after being yanked from Taco Bell's menu back in 2020 but loyalty members could snag it early beginning today.

Well, today is the day and Mexican Pizza lovers are already calling it "Mexican Pizza Day."

Some Acadiana residents managed to get their hands on the coveted Mexican Pizza as early as this weekend. Lori Dupuis grabbed Mexican Pizzas for herself and the family over the weekend after seeing that they were available in Opelousas.

So, was it as delicious as she remembered it to be?

According to Dupuis, it was "exactly the same—in all its messy, crispy, overly bean-filled, light on the meat glory."

Apparently, the messier, the better when it comes to the Mexican Pizza.
